Internship and Research

All undergraduate students are required to complete an internship with specific guidelines as part of their graduation requirements. Internships are generally arranged by each student and fulfilled under the supervision of the sponsoring organizations.

Usually taking place during the summer, these paid and non-paid training positions lead many students to gain invaluable connection to careers after graduation.
